Installing the Software
The TCP/IP protocol
must be installed on all PCs or notebooks that are to use the Internet. By
default, the IP address
192.168.1.1
and an
activated DHCP server
are configured for the router.
That means that the connected PCs are automatically given
appropriate addresses
and
other
settings
. We recommend using these. Select the
TCP/IP setting Get IP address automatically
for
all PCs or notebooks connected to the router. You can then configure the router
using the web
browser
. The browser must be
Java-capable
and the Java function must be activated (e.g. Internet
Explorer 5.5 or higher, or Netscape 7.0 or higher, Opera 6.0, Firefox 1.0, etc.).
To start the configuration process, open your browser and enter
192.168.1.1
as the address. The
login window
is displayed.
The preset username is:
admin
password:
admin
After making the entry, click
OK
. The
Basic Setup DHCP
window opens.
The router must now be configured for the corresponding
ADSL protocols
. Access via
PPPoE
(Germany), PPTP (Austria) and Static IP
is described in the following pages. If you are not sure
which
ADSL protocol
you must use, contact your Internet provider.
Access via PPPoE:

Select the first option
Get IP address automatically (PPPoE)
.
Leave the
host name
and
domain name
blank. You must specify your
Internet provider
.
Private IP Address:
You can allocate
your internal IP address range
here. We recommend that
you do not change anything.
User Name:
Your
User name
(that your Internet provider assigned you)
Password:
Your
password
ISP:
The
name of your Internet provider
e.g.
T-Online
MTU:
You can generally leave the standard
149
, but certain Internet providers
require other values.
For example:
T-Online =
1492
AOL =
1400
Freenet =
1454
1&1=
1492
Q-DSL=
1454
Arcor=
1488
Tiscali=
1492 (for DSL volumes)
Tiscali=
1492 (for DSL flatrate)
Connect on demand:
If you
enable
this option, the router
automatically dials into the Internet
as
soon as your browser or a program opens that attempts to connect to the
Internet.
Disconnect when network idle:
Enter the
number of minutes
after which
the router should
disconnect the Internet connection when it is idle
.
Important information for DSL users who are billed based on data volume:
Please keep in mind that there are many
background programs
that
connect to the Internet
despite your browser being closed
and therefore the
connection is not disconnected
. Such
background programs are for example,
virus scanners
,
Windows Media Player
,
Windows
Update
and
trojans
. Therefore, so you are not surprised by an
excessive Internet bill
,
switch off
the router after you are finished using the Internet
to be completely sure that
no unwanted
connections can occur
.
Note T-Online users:
The
user name
consists of: the
12-digit connection ID, T-Online number
(if this is shorter than
12 digits, you must complete it with the # symbol),
